THE    GUIDE    FOR    PIECE-DYEING. 


ANILINE    COLORS. 

I  have  omitted  to  name  the  houses  from  which  the  dyes 
and  drugs  were  obtained,  used  in  producing  the  samples,  as  it 
is  my  object  to  avoid  making  this  an  advertising  medium  for 
any  particular  house,  and  have  therefore  declined  to  accept  any 
advertisement.  1  have  merely  given  the  prices  of  some  of  the 
dyes,  so  as  to  be  a  guide  to  the  strength ;  but  should  any  sub 
scriber  desire  to  know  the  house  from  which  they  were  pur- 
chased,  I  will  furnish  the  information.  Should  you  write,  a 
self-addressed,  postage-stamped  envelope  must  be  enclosed  to 
to  insure  a  reply. 

There  are  so  many  things  which  have  to  do  with  a  piece- 
dyer's  success,  with  which  the  dyer  has  nothing  to  do,  and  for 
which,  while  he  is  not  at  all  responsible,  yet  the  manner  in 
which  these  things  are  done  directly  affects  the  quality  of  his 
work,  that  I  have  thought  in  these  articles  best  to  call  the  at- 
tention of  manufacturers  as  well  as  dyers  to  a  few  of  them. 
Many  dyers  are  blamed  for  bad  colors  or  uneven  work,  when 
the  blame  rightfully  should  rest  on  the  overseers  who  have 
charge  of  the  goods  before  and  after  they  are  in  the  dyer's 
hands.  On  account  of  bad  shades  or  uneven  work,  which 
from  day  to  day  come  under  the  agent's  eye,  he  at  last  feels 
obliged  to  make  a  change.  He  hires  a  dyer  who  has  been  suc- 
cessful in  the  place  where  he  has  worked  for  perhaps  many 
years,  and  the  manufacturer  secures  him  at  advanced  pay,  hop- 
ing that   he   will   fully   meet   all   requirements.     Extra  care  is 


iv  THE   GUIDE  FOR  PIECE-DYEING. 

taken  in  the  preparation  of  the  goods.  The  dyer  colors  them, 
and  they  come  out  perfect  in  all  respects ;  the  dyer  is  elated  to 
think  he  has  done  what  his  predecessor  failed  to  do,  while  the 
agent  feels  justified  in  removing  the  old  dyer  and  paying  an 
increased  salary.  "  A  new  broom  sweeps  clean"  is  the  old 
adage,  and  never  is  it  more  aptly  applied  than  to  this  barbar- 
ous custom  of  changing  a  competent  dyer  in  nine  cases  out  of 
ten.  I  am  writing  what  nearly  every  dyer  and  many  agents 
will  indorse  heartily  when  I  say  (and  I  say  it  from  forty  years' 
experience  in  first-class  mills)  that  agents  and  superintendents 
rarelv.  if  ever,  look  for  the  cause  of  imperfect  dyeing,  except  to 
the  dyer.  The  dyer  is  the  alpha  and  the  omega  of  all  bad 
work.  After  a  few  weeks  smooth  sailing,  our  new  dyer  is 
called  to  the  perch  in  the  finishing-room  to  look  at  his  poor 
coloring — seldom,  if  ever,  to  examine  good  work.  The  dyer, 
upon  being  called  to  see  his  work,  declares  with  much  emphasis 
that  the  same  dye-stuffs  were  applied  with  the  same  care  to 
this  lot  of  goods  as  to  the  one  that  was  so  satisfactory  at  the 
commencement  of  his  labors:  and  now  we  find  the  same 
dilemma  that  caused  the  old  dyer  to  lose  his  situation. 

My  object  in  writing  this  notice  is  to  show  to  agents  and 
superintendents  of  woolen  mills  there  are  causes  that  many 
times  make  it  an  utter  impossibility  for  a  dyer,  no  matter  how 
competent  he  may  be,  to  make  good  and  even  colors. 

The  agent  gets  the  best  soap,  pays  the  highest  price  (too 
high  in  many  instances),  in  order  to  get  good  colors,  and  yet 
that  does  not  remove  the  trouble.  I  claim  that  it  matters  lit- 
tle, so  far  as  evenness  of  color  is  concerned,  what  kind  of  soap 
is  used  in  scouring  or  fulling.  In  my  own  experience  I  have 
many  times  changed  the  soap  at  considerable  expense,  as  well 
as  much  inconvenience,  without  any  material  benefit  ensuing, 
the  trouble  being,  not  poor  soap,  but  a  lack  of  thorough  re- 
moval  of  the    soap  after  washing.     Further,  I  believe    cloths 


THE   GUIDE  FOR  PIECE-DYEING.  V 

are  scoured  clean,  or  as  clean  as  they  can  be,  by  using  no  warm 
water.  In  some  mills  they  have  a  tank  elevated  above  the 
washers,  with  a  cold-water-pipe  and  a  steam-pipe  entering  it, 
while  another  pipe  is  arranged  to  thoroughly  rinse  the  clothes 
in  warm  water  after  it  has  run  a  given  time  in  cold  water. 
This  is  absolutely  necessary  in  order  to  remove  the  soap,  and 
yet,  with  all  the  washing  in  cold  and  warm  water  the  overseer 
is  able  to  give  the  cloth,  he  will  find  himself  unable  to  remove 
all  the  soap, — it  is  almost  impossible  to  get  it  all  out.  My  at- 
tention has  been  often  called  to  a  milky  appearance  of  the 
water  as  it  is  pressed  out  while  in  process  of  winding  on  the 
rolls  for  the  steam-box. 

A  dyer  may  succeed  in  getting  a  decent  black  on  cloths 
that  are  soapy,  but  the  condition  of  the  cloth  is  enough  to  con- 
demn any  dyer,  on  account  of  its  being  hard  and  stiff.  Full- 
er's-earth  is  one  of  the  best  things,  if  not  the  best,  to  remove 
soap  or  grease  from  cloth.  I  hold  that  in  order  to  present  the 
cloth  in  proper  condition  to  the  dyer,  great  care  must  be  taken 
before  steaming.  After  the  cloths  are  gigged,  and  before  they 
are  steamed,  they  should  be  washed  in  fuller's-earth  thirty  min- 
utes, then  in  water  thirty  minutes. 

The  reason  of  this  is,  the  gig  opens  the  fibres  of  the  goods 
and  gives  the  fuller's-earth  better  chance  to  remove  the  soap. 

All  washing  should  be  done  before  steaming,  as  the  process 
of  steaming  fixes  any  stains  or  grease  which  may  be  on  the  cloth. 

The  author  has  had  early  training  in  European  schools  of 
instruction,  has  held  important  positions  in  Berlin,  Germany, 
and  established  the  New  York  and  Long  Island  Woolen  Dye- 
works  in  1858,  successfully  carried  on  business  for  fifteen  years, 
and  always  superintended  the  dyeing  department  personally, 
and  is  thoroughly  acquainted  with  all  branches  of  the  art.

opportunity  of  knowing  with  whom  you  are  dealing,  I  herewith

submit  you  my  references.  You  are  requested  to  make  full 
and  satisfactory  inquiry.  I  also  invite  an  inspection  of  the 
standing  and  character  of  my  references.  They  are  all  large 
and  responsible  firms,  and  are  rated  high  in  the  mercantile 
agencies.  Any  business  individual,  firm,  or  corporation  in  your 
own  or  any  other  locality,  being  a  subscriber  to  either  Brad- 
street's  or  Dun's  Mercantile  Agency,  will  have  access  to  the 
regularly  printed  and  special  reports  of  said  agencies,  and  can 
easily  obtain  the  desired  information. 

By  permission  I  call  your  attention  to  the  following  refer- 
ences. Should  you  write  any  of  them,  a  self-addressed,  post- 
age-stamped envelope  must  be  enclosed  to  insure  a  reply  :

NOTE. — The  Author  is  prepared  to  furnish,  at  the  rate  of 
$25  each,  receipts  for  any  shades  not  shown  in  this  book,  if 
samples  of  the  colors  desired  be  sent  him.  In  case  of  dif- 
ficulty in  the  dye-house  he  may  be  consulted  and  his  services 
secured  if  his  expenses  be  paid. 


PLAN  OF  THE  WORK. 


The  author  avoids  all  the  tedious  and  unnecessary  reading- 
matter  so  common  in  other  books  on  dyeing.  His  desire  is  to 
impart  the  required  information  in  a  plain,  simple  manner. 

In  offering  the  following  directions  for  the  use  of  the  aniline 
dyes,  it  is  not  claimed  that  they  are  in  all  cases  the  very  best 
methods,  as  almost  every  dyer  of  much  experience  has  his  own 
processes  for  his  peculiar  work.  The  object  is  to  present  sim- 
ple formulas  by  which  good  results  can  be  obtained  by  any  in- 
telligent person. 

The  Coal  Tar  Colors  not  only  rival  all  the  old  dyes  in 
beauty  and  brilliancy,  but  are  also  more  permanent,  cheaper, 
and  more  easily  applied  than  any  of  the  old  dyeing  drugs.  In 
dyeing  it  is  of  very  great  importance  for  the  dyer  to  be  fully 
posted  as  to  what  kind  of  finish  the  geods  are  to  have,  so  he 
may  use  coloring  matter  in  producing  his  shades  of  color,  and 
apply  them  in  the  best  method  his  experience  may  suggest. 


SOLUTIONS. 


Dissolve,  say,  one  pound  of  color  in  ten  gallons  of  water, 
and  boil  for  fifteen  or  twenty  minutes. 

To  get  uniform  results,  to  avoid  specking,  etc.,  and  work 
economically,  all  solutions  should  be  filtered  through  fine  cloth. 

The  dyer  can  only  calculate  with  the  given  factors,— and 
these  are  the  dye-stuffs,  alkalies,  salts,  acids,  light,  water,  and 
heat ;   so  is  the  stuff  or  the  fibre  which  he  has  to  color.

Seldom,  if  ever,  will  the  dyer  obtain  exact  match  without  a 
little  feeding ;  the  cloth  he  dyes,  and  the  dyes  and  drugs  he 
uses,  may  vary  from  those  used  in  the  samples.  The  practi- 
cal dyer  will  see  at  the  first  glance  by  matching  if  it  needs 
yellow,  red,  or  blue  (or  all).  He  will  therefore  carefully 
add,  according  to  his  judgment — for  yellow,  turmeric;  red, 
archil ;  blue,  extract  indigo.  Before  the  adding,  steam  should  be 
shut  off  and  the  dyes  well  dissolved  in  hot  water.  To  avoid 
unevenness  I  advise  not  to  feed  with  aniline.

REGINA   PURPLE. 

The  fastest  Purple  dye  yet  produced  ;  very  valuable 
for  light  shades  of  Lavender  and  light  tints,  where  the 
fastness  is  a  great  desideratum.  This  dye,  although 
exceedingly  strong,  does  not  come  in  so  cheap,  nor  is 
yet  so  bright  as  Hofmann's  Violets. 

Dissolve,  say,  one  pound  color  in  about  ten  gallons 
water,  heat,  and  well  stir  until  the  color  is  dissolved. 

Dye  in  neutral  bath,  but  the  color  may  be  varied  to 
almost  any  shade  of  blueness  by  the  addition  of  more  or 
less  Sulphuric  Acid  to  the  bath.  This  color  is  recom- 
mended for  light  shades.
